Brake pads Brembo or OEM Volkswagen

I've driven a Cupra R and can attest to their great stopping ability. IMO not as good as the AP's but for the price difference, they are worth it.

i have it installed on my corrado g60 and it is a great upgrade just bolted straight on (you do have to be carefull that your wheelsize is ok, et value has to be low enough) Overhere in Belgium and the Netherlands almost every corrado swapped to the cupra brakes (I know my self at least 20 people who have them and are very very very happy with them)

I ran DEs on one of my other Corrads and loved them.

my bro. had a turbo VR cabrio running DE brakes and 18" wheels. noticed a little a fade only under EXTREME stop and go conditions. but as far as daily driving goes, they worked very very well.

Just when I think I've got the RK Spyder figured out, the incredibly precise steering, crushingly effective Brembo four-piston-caliper brakes deliver a thrilling driving experience that begs for a track day before I reach 4th gear.

Those Brembo brakes haul the car down from silly speeds repeatedly on the track with no sign of fade or sogginess.

I got the rear brakes done on my passat yesterday. They did a good job, and I'm pleased with my brakes.

I could give you the part number but you need the caliper tool to wind the piston back . Part number is 1H0698451F . I know its Golf 3 part number but I prefer these to the Golf 4 units . Also just re-use the bolts the strength is overdone for its purpose . I also prefer golf 3 pollen filters as oppossed to Golf 4 ones

At low speeds, ASW uses the ABS sensors and brakes the spinning wheels, which will affect the life of the front brake pads (at least, that's how I understand it).

About 10,000 miles ago, I would have been more positive. But now I'm at 40,000 miles now, and I'm ready to dump my '99 GLX at the next problem. - 25,000: rear brakes (my $) - 30,000: front brakes (my $)
